The Marion Toastmaster’s Club, a public speaking, communications and leadership organization, meets the second and fourth Thursday of each month from noon to 1 p.m. at the Wareham Library, 59 Marion Road, Wareham.

There is a vocabulary word of the day at each meeting, a joke of the day, two, five to seven minute prepared speeches, two-minute extemporaneous speaking sessions and evaluations of what just happened. The meeting is one hour. Bring a brown bag lunch.

The group will help nervous public speakers get over their jitters and gain more confidence in their presentation skills. For more information, call 508-292-6706 or visit our web site at www.Marion.ToastmastersClubs.org.
